Overhead Tripod 78"/200cm DSLR Flexible Aluminium Travel Tripod 22lbs/10kg Load - K234A7 + BH-28L (S210)
SKU: KF09.087V2
I’m just getting into photography myself and I have many tripods basically all are pretty cheap. I bought this one in hopes it would be on a professional level and I could be happier. This baby is solid. I don’t know much about tripods but this is the very first tripod that I feel as though it is very professional. I’m sure there are much better but at my level this is the best I’ve ever had. Just for reference I’m 52 years old.

This is a great value! It’s very stable and lightweight. I am looking forward to using this on my hunting trips this fall!

The past few years I have had the fortunate opportunity to be able to try out many different types of camera equipment. I find that there are three big categories: heavy-duty, standard use, and travel. This tripod from K&F Concept is definitely designed to be in that third group. I have a couple of travel tripods that do a fantastic job of holding my full-frame Canon 5D Mark IV with a 70-200mm lens attached. I said that to mention that sometimes the smaller, lighter-weight tripods get the job done so you don’t have to haul around the heavier standard size mounts. K&F Concept did a nice job with the design of this tripod. It’s very lightweight at only 3.17 pounds, which is comparable to my travel-sized Manfrotto tripod.
This tripod has an impressive total height to it of 78 inches, which should be enough for any photograph you need to capture. I am shooting a wedding in a couple of weeks and I have the idea of shooting above the audience from the back of the venue. At 78 inches, this tripod provides the necessary height to be able to achieve that ‘over-head’ shot I’m looking for. The ball head moves easily enough, but the numbers on the bottom dial are faded and printed in a very light color. It’s hard to read -- even in studio lighting. I personally think that those numbers should be printed in a brighter, more vibrant color -- maybe even neon.
The legs extend easily, but the quick-release flip-locks have very sharp edges. I went to unlock one of the legs and the edge of the lock clipped my finger and I started bleeding. I was surprised to find such a sharp edge on a finished product like this. Another issue I found was with the center column. It seemed as though no matter how much I tightened it, I could still push the column down. I was only pushing down with as much force as a camera load would provide.
I really like that the feet had spikes on them. This provides a lot of added traction especially out in nature. It’s not something you see on every tripod and it was a welcome surprise with this design.

For the price, you really can’t beat what you get. Study, lightweight, and high flexibility in shots thanks to the ball mount. All the fasteners are nice and rigid, no slop and no wiggle when everything is locked down. When it’s folded it can fit in your backpack no problem. Overall really love this tripod!

I have been a videographer for 37 years. My first and only Tripod was a Velbon made in Germany which I still use today. However the K&F Concept tripod is certainly an update to my equipment. Solid, universal. Lightweight, Collapsible, feature rich Tripod. You will love this tripod. I certainly do. Very nice product at a very reasonable price.

This tripod is great. It’s light, steady, tall and with the included shoe, the camera goes on and comes off easily. Best part is how easily it sets up. Love it.

This is a solid tripod. Comes with a travel bag and allen keys to attach baseplate. An added bonus that it can also be used as a monopod although I will rarely use it for that. Legs are sturdy, easy to adjust, ballhead is solid and smooth, and baseplate seems strong and simple to attach onto camera. The bottom of the legs have rubber caps that can be removed to expose the metal feel. Im mainly using the tripod for long exposure shots, which it does well. The base has a hook to attach a bag for added stability. Overall, this is a great tripod for the money. I’ve had similar tripods in the past that were priced well above this one but this definitely it a good choice if you dont want to overspend.

Love this tripod!! Needed a taller tripod since my camera is usually pointed at the night sky. No more bending over at awkward angles to set compositions or reviewing shots. No issues with its construction and the ball head clamps down tightly.

This tripod is exactly what I needed for my Sony A7II. It is capable of holding up the weight of my camera and my bulky lenses. I especially like the ability to adjust the height with ease. I am no professional photographer but this meets all my needs as I can bring it with me on hiking trips since it's very light and fits in a small pouch that it comes with.

Why I didn’t order this sooner I’ll never know. Having used my old one for 25 years seemed to be okay. Then I put this in my shopping cart and left it there for months. Telling my friends to buy this, they did. I was the hold out! Why? I do t know. If you want a tripod that’s sturdy, durable, lightweight, compact, and versatile...then THIS is your tripod! I’m kicking myself for not getting this sooner! Well worth the money!
